Interesting ideas... Still new changes and features won't prevent the migration. Eventually the newer products will take over just as IL-2 took over from the generation of sims before it. It took a while to happen. People have been saying it's dying for 5-6 years now and yet every weekend I can log in to Battlefield1 and see 30-60 players going all day long. Not bad
And there's a huge number of folks who play single player only.
